How do you support your “neurotypical” children when they have experienced the trauma of meltdowns, rage episodes, and frequent hospitalizations of their brother or sister?

And how do you balance all your children’s needs when one of them requires everything you have to give? Join us for a deep dive into this complex issue of sibling relationships in families of children who have pediatric epilepsy surgery.
